[1] 'Twould been better for us both had we [4] never
In this [5] wide and wicked world had never [1] met
For the pleasure we both seemed to [4] gather
I'm [5] sure Love, I'll never for-[1]-get
Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me
Oh you told me once dear that you loved me
You said that we never would part
But a link in the chain has been broken
Leaves me with a sad and aching heart
When the cold, cold grave shall enclose me
Will you come near and shed just one tear
And say to the strangers around you
A poor heart you have broken lies here
[1] 'Twould been better for us both had we [4] never
In this [5] wide and wicked world had never [1] met
For the pleasure we both seemed to [4] gather
I'm [5] sure Love, I'll never for-[1]-get
Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me
Oh you told me once dear that you loved me
You said that we never would part
But a link in the chain has been broken
Leaves me with a sad and aching heart
When the cold, cold grave shall enclose me
Will you come near and shed just one tear
And say to the strangers around you
A poor heart you have broken lies here
